Six Sentence Story

I wake up before my alarm this morning, an odd occurrence to say the least. Everyone is tired when they wake up, but today I feel like I’ve been hit by a truck. As I wake up more and more, the pain gets worse and worse. My hobble to the bathroom tells me that there’s no way I’m going to work because my feet are filled with glass and someone seems to have stuck invisible arrowheads into my joints. I try yoga and a shower, both of which help temporarily but make little headway in reality. Twelve hours later, even sitting hurts and I wonder how I will sleep tonight.
